[QUOTE="highbury731, post: 176450, member: 1557"] Confessions department. I did my first tests on the dynamo/alternator sprocket engagement, and got about 0.030" movement of the chain. Then I got distracted, took a look at the clutch end seal, and forgot that I had removed the clutch carrier. With no clutch carrier in place, the chainwheel drops and suddenly the dynamo sprocket engagement gets, um, loose. With the shoe carrier safely back in place,. I get about .040" clearance on the sprocket. Hey ho, I goofed. Having got that out of the way... If I remove the steel ring ET164 and file the crankcase hole I could lower it say 20 or 30 thou, and allow the alternator to drop a bit, maybe 10 thou. [/QUOTE]
